          Abstract

          El propósito de este artículo es dar cuenta del problema de las bajas tasas de graduación en el sector universitario nacional de la Argentina, y de las políticas públicas e institucionales puestas en marcha en la primera década del 2000 que pueden estar incidiendo sobre esta cuestión. En un periodo caracterizado por el crecimiento del financiamiento público universitario, aumento de las remuneraciones e incremento en la cantidad de cargos docentes, el número total de egresados y el indicador de eficiencia en la titulación muestran una cierta mejoría. Además de estas condiciones propicias para la actividad de enseñanza universitaria, las políticas públicas de promoción de la calidad impulsaron la incorporación de tutorías en las carreras de grado y se amplió el número de becas para los estudiantes. El artículo concluye con una reflexión sobre la probable asociación entre estas políticas públicas e institucionales y la mejora en los indicadores de graduación y señala cuáles son los alcances y desafíos en pos de mejorar la graduación universitaria y la calidad de la formación de los egresados.

          Translated abstract

          The paper addresses the low graduation rate in the Argentine public university sector and the public and institutional policies implemented in the first decade of the 2000s that affected this issue. In a period characterized by increasing public university funding, higher wages, and the growth of academic posts, the total number of alumni and the graduation rate showed a degree of improvement. In addition to these favorable conditions for the development of teaching activities, public policies supporting quality assurance promoted mentoring in undergraduate programs and an increase in the number of scholarships for low-income undergraduate students. The article concludes with a reflection on the possible association between these public and institutional policies and the improvements observed in graduation rates, as well as highlighting the scope and challenges current public policies face to improve university graduation levels and the quality of university teaching.

              Agendas, Alternatives, and Public Policies

              Re-issued as part of the "Longman Classics in Political Science" series, Kingdon's renowned work features a new Foreword exploring the book's historical and enduring contributions. Kingdon's landmark work on agenda setting and policy formation is now offered in a Longman Classics Edition. This enduring work of original research, drawn from interviews with people in the U.S. federal government over the course of four years, examines the questions of how issues get to be issues for legislators. The book grapples with the questions: How do subjects come to officials' attention? How are the alternatives from which they choose generated? How is the governmental agenda set? Why does an idea's time come when it does? Hailed as one of the finest books about public policy- making, and winner of the 1994 Aaron Wildavsky Award, this book's rich detail and engaging prose make it a text that both students and instructors will savor.
